This essay may -- at first glance -- appear to be a bit off the health beat. But employment equity is important to health status, for women and their children. Edgar effectively points out the difference between the challenges "narrow, elite women at the top" face (such as Marissa Mayer and Sheryl Sandberg) -- and the fear women at lower rungs of the economy deal with every day: the potential of losing a job because a child is ill and needs care, or because the babysitter called in sick.
